Mrs McAlpin enjoyed a wide circle of friends and was universally loved and esteemed by all who knew her. She will be sincerely mourned within, as well as without, her immediate family.

She was married to Dennis McAlpin Feb 10, 1915. To this union were born two sons, Gerald, aged 5 years, and an infant son.
Her illness was of a short duration, and her death came as a shock to her many friends and relatives. Lena, as she was known by every body, was a kind hearted, loving wife and mother. It can be truly said that no task was too great for her to undertake for her family. She would always look on the bright side and meet everyone with a smile, a smile that will be impressed upon the memory of her relatives and friends for ever.

Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon in the M.E. church conducted by Rev Roy Snodgrass of Chilicothe, Mo, and interment was in Memory cemetery. The service was attended by a great concourse of people, a lving testimonial to the high regard in which deceased was held. The sorrowing family and relatives have the sympathy of all in their bereavement. NEW MARKET HERALD, New Market, Iowa, Feb 26, 1922
